This directive, if carried out will force The Prelude to cancel or alter many of its advertising contracts. According to a Prelnde editorial the paper is only budgeted to recieve $300 next semester after requesting $1,200. This will result in an allotment of $37.50 per issue. The Prelude claims it costs about $300 per issue to publish. Prelude Editor, Nat Kidder, stated that The Prelade is primarially dependent on advertisements to cover its costs. When asked to explain the decision to stop alcholic advertsements Duncan stated he was enforcing" "University Policy". Duncar elaborated, "Had I been aware of ii earlier, it would have been stopped before now." Duncan then stated,"its always been a problem'' and continued by saying, "I don't have to justify it (the ban)."

Duncan continued by challenging the University to raise $200 million by the turn of the century. "So far we've reached $100' million and it will be up to Dr. Lee to continue the centennial fund," restricted in advertising content, and recieves no funds from those who would restrict such content is being unfairly singled out, and you the students ultimately lose."

Another problem Dr. Lee will have to face is area growth. The traffic on Amelia Ave. has become unbearable. There are 4,500 pedestrian crossings and 20,000 cars passing through daily. In ten to fifteen years that traffic is expected to increase that all these guidelines are needed.
